Sentence: Leonard was in such a hurry to see if his on-line introduction service had found him a perfect match, he checked his e-mail & texts about a hundred times every hour. He did it so much, that his thumb went numb. He ended up being cursorry when the service finally wrote back to give him the bad news..."We are cursorry, but we have been unable to find an ideal match for you...someone who has a lot in common with you. In fact, we have never had a math/physics whiz, who lived in her parent's basement, does not work or go to school, does not enjoy showering or bathing, eats pizza three times a day and besides a large comic book collection, enjoys tarantulas, farting contests with loser friends and watches Big Bang Theory all day long. It was a big surprise to us as well..."
